The facial recognition system has been implemented in nine schools in North Ayrshire. Its main task is to facilitate the work of maintenance personnel during a pandemic.
The main reason why the local authorities decided to turn to the facial recognition system was the desire to reduce the number of touches during their stay in canteens and cafeterias. The systems will participate in the formation of the menu, the distribution of food and the collection of dirty dishes.
According to the developers, the security of this system has been proven experimentally. The technology does not use live scanning and does not recognize crowds. It is sharpened under the faces of the students included in the database.
It is noted that the recognition system is even safer than PIN codes that are used for bank cards.
Local authorities said that 97% of parents approved the consent to the processing of personal data of their children and their entry into the database.
In the future, the development of the system and its approbation in educational institutions of Northern Ayrshire, it is hoped that it will be easier for children to respond to similar technologies in other places. This applies to theaters, museums, concert halls and more. Children will be able to perceive the recognition procedure not as a forced measure, but as a routine procedure.
It will also help teenagers to react calmly to the scanning process. Without unnecessary worries and nerves, without sacrificing your privacy.
Other technological gadgets for children can be purchased in the appropriate
section of the OXO website. More than 3 thousand lots are presented there, including various electronic assistants.
